2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · GV64 OJB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the clean result of its most recent MOT test. The last recorded inspection conducted in October 2022 at 162,365 miles showed no recorded defects, indicating that the previous mechanical issues were addressed. However, as nearly four years have passed since this last official check, the vehicle is significantly overdue for its annual MOT. An immediate physical inspection is required to verify the current state of safety components after this extended gap in testing. The mileage pattern reflects high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 14,700 miles per annum over its eleven-year life. The data shows a consistent accumulation of mileage between 2019 and 2022, with the vehicle covering nearly 20,000 miles between the September 2019 and October 2022 tests. This high mileage suggests the van was used for consistent commercial work, which typically accelerates wear on the drivetrain and suspension. The lack of recent data since 2022 makes it impossible to determine the current usage rate over the last three years. A buyer should pay close attention to the rear assembly, as the nearside rear wheel bearing was flagged for play in 2021 at 157,726 miles. While it passed the subsequent test, high-mileage Transits often suffer from bearing failure and worn suspension bushes. The 2019 failure regarding an inoperative malfunction indicator light and headlamp alignment suggests a period where minor electrical and lighting maintenance was neglected. Given the age and high mileage, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion and the condition of the brake discs is essential to ensure the vehicle has not deteriorated during the long interval between recorded inspections.
